*Huge Thank You Once Again
Thank you once again to all of the parent volunteers that came out to help celebrate Halloween on Tuesday. We loved all of the crafts and games so much. It made the day memorable!
Due to the rainy forecast on Thursday, the first grade classes will be taking our field trip to the Norfolk Zoo on Friday, November 17th. We will leave school at approximately 9:15 and arrive back at school by 2:00. Please remember to dress your child in comfortable walking shoes as we will be doing a lot of walking as we explore the zoo. Also, unless noted on your child's permission slip, please make sure to pack their lunch in a paper/plastic bag with their name clearly marked on the outside. It is going to be a great trip to go along with our Animal Research Lab.

On Tuesday, November 21st at 3:00 our class will be performing a short Thanksgiving program entitled "The ABC's of Thanksgiving." We will sing some holiday songs and perform a short play about Thanksgiving. Families are encouraged to join us for this special program.
